Questions on Flight1 172R

Featured Replies

Hello,Just purchased Flight1's 172R airplane. I have a couple of questions:1) My in game performance took a serious hit with this airplane. Looking left and right causes a noticable delay that I didn't see before with the stock 172. What performance setting should I reduce to make this go away? My system is fairly robust (P4 2.8GHz, 1GB RAM, Radeon 9800 Pro).2) With the Flight1 model I have a hard time seeing anything when I look out of the windows. This may be more realistic but it causes great difficulty when landing. Is there a way to make the plane frame disappear, or transparent or something?Thanks,Paul

1) That is odd. You have a system thats faster than mine on paper, and the 172 is buttery smooth for me (XP3200/GF4 4400). Because of my card, thoough, I'm running it at 10x7 without AA or aniso.2) Go to the flight1 forums. Someone posted some settings there to adjust your viewpoint in the cockpit. I've sat in a few 172's in the real world, and never had the visibility problems that I have in their sim.If I need to look outside to the left, I just hit SHIFT-BACKSPACE a few times to lower my head . . .
